Niall's P.O.V
"She's no good for you, you know." I heard my best friend, Siobhan tell me as we walked down the deserted streets of Mullingar.
"And how do you know? You don't know anything about her!" I replied
"Yeah, and neither do you, Niall!" She shot back at me. "No one knows who she is! She just randomly shows up with her perfect long brown hair, and perfect green eyes, strutting around like she owns the goddamn place!"
"Someone sounds a bit jealous," I winked at her, trying to lighten the mood, it was New Years Eve and I didn't want to be fighting with her when the clock strikes 12. It only made her angrier though. You'd think I would've learnt by now. She stopped in her tracks staring at me like I'd grown three more heads.
"Me! Jealous of her?! Are you retarded or something?!"
"Well, I don't know Siobhan! Why else would you be blowing up like this? She didn't do anything to you, or anyone else for that matter! Why are you so adamant that I should stay away from her?"
"You really are stupid sometimes Niall Horan. She's been here, like, two weeks, tops, and she's already stolen you away from me! Can you not see that?" Her voice increased with every word she said, her fiery words matching her hair.
Siobhan's P.O.V
I stood there, staring at my best friend like he'd gone crazy. How DARE he say I'm jealous of that stuck up bitch? If only he knew the stuff she says about him, and everyone else. I try and stick up for my best friend, try to make sure he doesn't get hurt. And I get shot down and told I'm just jealous. Sure, maybe I am. Maybe I am jealous of the way he looks at her, and the fact he spends more time around that plastic slut than he does with me. Wouldn't anyone get jealous? I was losing him. That's all I knew. "She's taking you away from me. And you're too blinded by her looks to even notice or even care about me anymore. And don't even try to say that you do! Because you don't, you don't care." The look of hurt on his face after I said that broke my heart. At least I got through to him though.
"You think I don't care about you?" he asked me so quietly, I almost didn't hear him.
"I-I don't know Niall." I stuttered, "One minute we'll be hanging out and it'll be fine, but as soon as she comes around or is mentioned, you act like you don't want to be near me anymore. It hurts." The last two words were hardly audible to me, so I was surprised when I felt his body heat right in front of me. His finger lifted up my chin so I was looking into his mesmerizing blue eyes, I noticed the little distance he'd left between us and instantly my cheeks decided to turn the colour of my hair.
"I would never hurt you, Siobhan. Not on purpose anyway. I will always care about you, I care about you so much, and you have no idea." I must've looked confused because, instead of letting me speak my mind, he talked over me once more, "You know, I feel like I don't know how to act around you anymore, you're on mind all the time, and I don't know why, didn't know why. But I figured it out the other day. I was thinking about how I love how you're so passionate about the things you love, I love you're feisty red hair that matches your personality. I love the way your blue eyes shine when you get excited about something, but most of all, I realized that I love you. And not just in the 'we're best friends' way, I actually truly love you Siobhan." I was going to reply before I found his lips pressed against mine. Niall Horan was kissing me. My best friend! NIALL BLOODY HORAN! I wrapped my arms around his neck while he wrapped his around my waist.
I pulled away, as much as I didn't want to, "I love you too Niall." I whispered against his lips before joining our lips once more. I could feel him smiling against my lips as we heard fireworks go off in the background. The perfect boy, the perfect kiss, and the perfect start to the new year.
